I'm NOT an Author or Writer

[Deeannamontana]

I'm writing this because I need some help.
I have things I call diary entries - these are actual events that happened to me/us and I would like to publish them, but, frankly, I think I am driving the editors crazy.

I SUCK AT WRITING!

Does anyone out there want to take my stories and make them readable, publishable, or whatever will make the editors just publish the thing and quit making me feel like I'm in trouble with my English teacher???

I don't have a ton of diary entries, maybe 10 or so.

If anyone wants to help please PM me.
I don't expect an overwhelming response to this, but if anyone can help a poor illiterate woman out, please let me know!

Cheers!
DeeAnna

You might get more response by posting to the editor's forum:

Wherever you post next, you should specify the category these would be in--most editors have categories they prefer and ones they aren't interested working in--and you should specify that the stories are for posting to Literotica (if not, Literotica isn't an appropriate place to be asking for help).

I'm not quite sure what your problem is. I read part of your OBM story and it looked fine. It was a reasonable story.

With a score of 4.24 that's respectable. So why do you say you suck?

I applaud the author who is never troubled by fits of self-doubt or a temporary lack of confidence. I wish I was one of those writers unshakable in the belief that their collected works are the hottest shit on God's green earth. I mean, with my scores I should be running through the streets, celebrating. But I'm much too busy waiting for the moment someone shows up, points a finger at me and goes "You bloody fucking hack, what the hell are you even doing out here?" No amount of booze, coke and hookers can alleviate that.

How odd. Not being troubled by writing self-doubt or not lacking confidence in your writing is not, ipso facto, the same as thinking your writing is the hottest shit on God's green earth. How odd to be equating those two, especially in response to what Gordo12 posted.

Thank You!

I really appreciate the helpful responses - you folks are awesome!

Have received several offers to help.

Thank you, also, for directing me where to post.

I saw a couple of pleas for help in this thread - that's the only reason I posted here.

Cheers to you all!

I think pretty much everyone thinks their writing sucks to start with. Just keep writing your own stories, and be critical of your work before posting.

You’ll get better and it’s more satisfying doing it yourself.
